I’m staying for two nights at the Renaissance Hotel in Cologne, Germany. The place is perfectly located just a few steps away from Friesenplatz, since I had some business to do at the University. The Renaissance Hotels belong to the Marriott empire. One thing that struck me with this particular stay was the extremely well [...]

The Crowne Plaza, Koulova 15, in Prague
July 17th, 2008 · No Comments · Business, Hotels
Not much to say here. For a hotel of this chain, a disaster! Avoid it, if you can. Take the Marriott or the Hilton in the center, or even better, one of the small, more private hotels in the area.
The Crown Plaza’s staff was, with the usual exceptions, crabby and unfriendly, and – [...]

The building is nicely set in park-like estate, unfortunately directly located at a busy street.

Hotel "Felix" in Cambridge, UK

On September 27, 2007 I had the pleasure to stay at Hotel “Felix”, Whitehouse Lane, Huntingdon Road, Cambridge, UK, for two nights.
The Felix’s location is a bit far away in the north, too far to walk if you have a heavy backpack with you. Although quite near to Huntingdon road, the heavy traffic is not [...]
